Courtice Students Help Santa with His Snowmobile Memorial Hospital, Bowmanville, Bowmanville, closed its elective admissions Saturday, Dec. 20, and they will stay closed until Jan. 4,1987. Hospital Administrator Richard Elston said the closing, which takes place every year, is an economic advantage for the hospital because it allows them to reduce their staff during the holidays. "Nobody wants to come in here anyway," Mr. Elston said last Friday. The emergency ward of the hospital will still be open and emergency and urgent cases will be diagnosed diagnosed according to the immediacy immediacy of the problem. And Mr. Elston said there is no set rule for determining determining which cases will be diagnosed as immediate. He said some symptoms like a gall bladder problem could be elective or could require immediate surgery. Meanwhile, his summary of the past year at the hospital hospital is that it was "very, very active." He said growth in the town has led to more people using the hospital. He also said the symptoms being treated are more complicated. "The degree degree of illness that we're treating now is more complex complex than it was before," he said. Busy times at the hospital were also created by the ongoing ongoing plans for the renovations renovations and construction to the hospital: Mr. Elston said construction construction should be starting next Deaths What would Santa do if his sleigh broke down?

She admitted her request was in direct direct contrast to a joint report from the Works Dept, directors of the eight municipalities. That report said the region's request request to enter into a cost-share program program with Durham Region for Durham Recycling Inc.'s services should be denied because the economic viability viability of the centre is questionable. It added that each municipality should consider approaching private businesses with their recycling needs. Ms. Gies told council that her landlord landlord is looking for some sign of relief and will not give her more than two months to continue if the report's actions actions are followed. She also said that since the report was written, the Ministry of the Environment Environment has offered $500,000 towards the service this year. That money makes up about 48 per cent of the capital costs for this year. In the followingyears, Ms. Gies said the ministry would continue to make contributions but in decreasing amount.: with the hope that the municipalities municipalities aim me region would From Page One sume full responsibility in six years' time. If the municipalities agreed to enter into the cost-sharing agreement with the region, the region would pay for new facilities costing about $600,000 and for household containers containers costing $363,000. The municipalities would pay the amount of the tipping fee per tonne. That amount would not exceed the tipping fee that would be charged at a landfill site. At the end of the year, any possible deficit would be paid by the municipalities municipalities but any surplus would be refunded refunded to the municipalities. Councillor Diane Ilamre said council council shouldn't make any decision until the exact cost of sharing the service with the region is known to the town, And she said once that cost is known, council shouldn't necessarily decide to go with the service that offers offers the cheaper rate, She said a profit-oriented corporation corporation might not be the best choice for the recycling situation.

Physiotherapy is expected expected to triple in size and the emergency ward will be doubled at completion.

"It's not just like a wall in the house," he explained, pointing out that there is apparatus attached to the walls, including oxygen systems systems and communications services. Mr. Elston said the careful careful planning has led to some people holding off on their pledges to the hospital's campaign fund. In total, 44 per cent of the funding will be coming through local initiatives. Mr. Elston said it's a guaranteed fact that construction construction will be completed and he said all people should join the majority who are currently honoring their pledges.
